For long time it has seemed to peo.
pie of the central part of the State that
the Ohio State Journal ought to assume
more metropolitan proportions. The
growing importance of Columbus and
that portion of the State commonly
known as Central, Southeastern and
Northwestern Ohio, demands a newspa-
per service that shall be more especially
the product of this section, and more
specifically devoted to its interests COM
mercially, politically and in the matter
of news. There are strong papers in
Cincinnati and also in Cleveland. But
the more than fifty counties that COM
prise the territory mentioned above are
abundantly able and are certainly i'm.
portant enough to maintain another
strong paper in the central and next i'm.
portant city of the State. As a factor
in the affairs Of the Republican party, it
is all important that such paper should
be published, and the lack oft has been
severely felt for many years. There ID
no Republican paper in the State with a
better tradition of party fealty than the
State Journal, nor any paper with bet.
ter record for reliability and high
order of conduct in all matters.
These things being true, the announce
ment that the paper is shortly to be en-.
larged to standard size, eight page
sheet, and fitted out with all the modern
paraphernslia of a journal of the first
class will doubtless be received with
pleasure by the public. In its new form
the State Journal will be the same size a
the Chicago Tribune, Inter Ocean, st. t.Louil
Globe Democrat, Louisville Caurier-Iour
nal, Cleveland Leader, and others of ,
like standing in the country. The week
ly edition will be also enlarged from for
ty.eight to sixty-four columns. Add
tions will be made to the editorial staff
and the scope of discussion Of publi
matters enlarged and improved to com
port with the proposed new order o
things. Thirty thousand dollars will b
expended by the publishers in consum
mating these arrangements. and the me
chanical outfit covers perfecting pres
and all the other belongings Of q com
plete modern newspaper establishmen
Of the first class, There is no city in tn
State 90 sdvsntageously lQcsted ~ Ok
lumbus for serving 90 many points at q
early hour Of the day with daily new

Georgia's anti-treating movement is
as needful as it is novel. The custom OF
treating can create more drunkards in a
year than all the temperance orators
could convert in decade. With a few
glasses OF beer in his stomach the sting
lest drinker becomes remarkably liberal.
He gets friendly to every stranger in the
bar-room, and wants to buy enough
liquor for all to swim in. About one
half of the drunkenness would be pre-.
vented if the treating custom could be
abolished. Perhaps the "polite" habit
is less popular in Hillsboro since pro.
hibitory ordinance raised the retail
price OF the enthusing fluid.

Who and where is that Democratic
candidate for Probate Judge that will
come into the field with colors flying and
carry away the Office by majority to
startle the natives? This announce ment
is interesting since it comes from paper
published by the present incumbent OF
the Probate office. If the numbers ol
Democratic forces were proportional to
the conceit of Democratic leaders, they
would indeed be formidable antagonists
If there were man in Highland county
who could by the aid OF all the Doodle
expended roll up another majority of A
the Democrats themselves would be sur
prised.

"The More, The Mcrrier !"

Since the publication of the names Of
candidates who will be before the Re-
publican County Convention, in our last
issue, the following names have been
mentioned in our private reports. We
wish to repeat that these must not be
considered official nominations, for iu
the majority of cases the individual has
not been consulted and is put forward
by his friends. Here are the additions :
Representative, J. L. Boardman and
Nathaniel Massie, Of Liberty.

The delegates elected to the Republi-
can State Convention last Saturday are
good men. They are all well qualified
to represent the Republicans Of High.
land county. OF course they are for
Foraker, because there is not stronger
candidate in the universe. Sherman is
their choice for the Presidency if the
convention considers it policy to declare
in favor of any candidate at the present
time. But if the effort to endorse Sher
man arouses ill-feeling in the conven
ton, the delegates from Highland have
too much gumption to urge disruptivt
movement.

A Great Movement.

According to the statistical report of
the Sunday Schools in the United States
rendered at the late International Con.
vention held at Chicago, there has been
an increase in the scholar membership
OF all the Sunday Schools in the U. $.
since 1884 of 285,845. It is interesting
to know by what agencies this increase
has been secured for 1t shows that
great missionary work has been done to
bring an army OF S65,OO0 into active
membership with our Sunday Schools.
No more important work can be con-
ceived of, for it has to do with the desti.
ny of our entire country.
The three last Annual reports Of the
American Sunday School Union, the old
undenominational Society "that cares
for the children" who are provided
for by no one else, show that since 1884,
it has brought 1S5, 1884 children into 4,947
new Sunday Schools, number equal to
5000 more than one.half of all the in
crease reported as having been secured
by this and all other agencies during
these three years. BIT this American
Sunday School Union did more than
this-It aided 1925 other schools, which
have 1874 teachers and 515,7l4 schol-
ars,-so that in these three years it
reached 9,S72 communities and Sunday
Schools, and 700, 74S children and youth,
and then reaided and revisited these
schools 9,245 times, besides making
81, ,5S4 visits to families, supplying 49, ,Ol9
destitute persons with the scriptures
and holding 27.247 religious meetings.
That there is great need for more of just
such work in our country, is evident
from the fact that according to the In.
ternational Secretary's report there are
but S,O34, AIS scholars in all the Sunday
Schools in the United States that report
to this convention, which the chairman
of the Executive Committee said was
five per cent. too small. Iffive per cent
were added, we have S,436, POI scholars
in all our Sunday Schools. But the
statement was made that 20 per ct
should be deducted for those over 21 ant
under years of age, and those who at
tend more than one school and art
counted twice which deducted woult
leave 6,74s,961 children and youth O
school age in all our Sunday Schools
while there are at least 100000 more
children of that age in our country, ant
very likely most of them attend no Sun
day School.
Truly the American Sunday Schoo
Union is doing great work, for presen
and future America, for which there il
most urgent need. Any who would lik'
to read its last annual report, or aid it
work by gift Of funds may send to

What Shall We Retract ?

The Probate Judge of Highland county
did pay prompt visit to the NEws.HER-
AID Office last Wednesday for the pur-
pose of having himself "vindicated."
However, we are not at present in the
vindicating business. We said nothing
last week that needs to be corrected this
week. We asked people who had been
doing business with the Probate Court
to look over their cost bills and see if all
was correct. We wanted nothing more.
II Judge Dittey has been transacting
business in perfectly upright manner,
such an examination would strengthen
his influence with the people. If not,
why should he kick so vigorously about
our article? His remarkably prompt
visit to this Office and his heated re-
marks in the Gazette must awaken doubt
and suspicion. We made no charges of
misconduct against Judge Dittey and no
public officer should shrink from inves-
tigation or get angry when one is sug-
gested.
There are few things that ''R. M. D."
in common with the rest of the Gazette
writers must learn:
i. That the public judges an article
by the candor, clearness and force of it's
expression, and not by the age of the
writer.
2. That carload of epithets cannot
he IN equivalent for two lines of sense.
8. That column of petty excuses is
not esteemed an argument, no matter
whose potent initials are affixed to it.
We are pleased to notice that Judge
Dittey puts his own signature after his
article. This locates the supply.house
Of the Gazette's name-calling: We have
long watched the mud as it was slune
al over the county, but we never knew
before to what reservoir the hose-line
was attached. And right here the
Judges "gentlemanly conduct" toward
NJ comes to mind. If all the groundlesi
falsehoods and senseless vituperatioI

Columbus has defeated the ordinance
to close the saloons at midnight. 'Tisn't
much wonder that they have tally sheet
forgeries and every other style of political
fraud In the capital city. When city
not only tolerates the traffic in liquors
"all the livelong day." but refuses to
stop the sale for few hours Of the night,
morality must be at low ebb. 1t might
be we'll to remove the penitentiary to

TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER.

The Hartford Armory to be Rented
 by the State For POlO-The PrOs-
 poets of Getting Union Armery in
 New Haven For Polo.
 Quartermaster General Olmstead has de- cided to let the First regiment armory for polo uses this season to the highest bidder. The State by this means expects to realize a good figure which it can apply to National Guard purposes.
 A New Haven polo enthusiast said last night that the prospects of polo in this city would greatly increase if the Union armory on Meadow street could be leased. The prospects are that the armory co uld be ob. tained if enough pressure was brought to bear. The armory certainly would be great improvement on Lincoln rink, which was not half large enough to accommodate the crowds.
